Spices have enlivened civilisations for aeons. These fragrant flora have added zing to food, zest to life, charted the lifestyles of whole races and regions and shaped the history of the modern world. This book represents a journey through time and space, a voyage across millennia, spanning continents and cultures all around the globe; an exotic journey that weaves a history of the world through its desire for spices. Commissioned by the Spices Board of India, Spicestory is a richly-illustrated journey through each of the unique spices that can be found throughout Asia.
